BADI - Master Data Lock (MDEL)

[Former Member]

Hi

We are creating Automatically PS Project from cProject so that Cproject objects are assigned to Top WBS Element.

By default PS Status is Released (REL) and Master data locked(MDEL) and Billing element is set.

I need WBS Status to Created only and it should not be a Billing element.

Would appreciate any expert advice to achieive above.

Thanks in advance for this

Hi Atul,

the status master data locked can be affected by BAdI, but as far as I known, released can not be changed.

How to prevent the master data locked, please see note 1011291. If you do not have access to note, please let me known. I can copy the text here.

Kind regards,

Hi Zhenbo

Actually we are at ERP 606 PPM 5.0 and note number 1011291 has reference to a note which is only valid for ERP605 - can you please advice a resolution for the same?

Further what is the logic of locking to MDLK - after detailed analysis it seems it is very difficult to workwith Auto PS project since other then MDLK, REL and there are practical issues of Internally generated WBS  Elements.

Please throw some light on this

Thanks in advance

Hi Zhenbo

MDLK issue is resolved - thanks for this.

Is there a way so that we can stop Project from being released? ie WBS Element should stay as a created status?

Please advice if theer is a possibility

Thanks in advance

Hi Atul,

sorry, I was busy with other stuffs in last days.

regarding released status, I don't know a solution. Maybe a initial user-status to prevent WBS be released is a workaround.

The wiki (created by me some years again)  mentioned by you

http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/display/PLM/Using+Sub-System+to+synchronize+PS+status

handles only the status after release, like close, cancel etc.

Kind regards,

Zhenbo

Release of PS WBS elements can be prevented by setting parameter RECEIVER_CONTROL to ICP3 in the IAOM_ATTRIBUTES (Characterteristics of CO Acct assignment to be created/chaned) BADI.

Hi Atul,

-I think the "billing element" is related to your settings. Check the project profile you are using because it is possible it is flagged as  billing,

By default this is the standard project profile "CPR0001" and it is not billing.

- Related to the projects are created in release status, I think it is not possible to change. You should work with user status in PS.

Thanks Clara

Badi IAOM_BUSINESS_SCENAR helps in changing Project profile

Billing element can be deactivated within  BAdI GCC_PS_PROJECT_LABEL, method GET_WBS_ELEMENT

How ever i dont have any answers to MDLK and REL

Lets hope for the best
